F’din il-konferenza ħadu sehem ’il fuq minn 50 studjuż minn Franza, il-Ġermanja, l-Irlanda, l-Iżrael, l-Italja, il-Ġappun, Malta u l-Istati Uniti.</p> <p>L-għaqda għandha l-għan li tħeġġeġ l-istudju tal-ilsien Malti. Se nippruvaw noħolqu ċentri universitarji oħra barra minn Malta għal din il-lingwa. Dan għandu jwassal għall-ħolqien ta’ netwerks ta’ kollaborazzjoni bejn studjużi u riċerkaturi minn diversi pajjiżi.</p> <p>Waqt il-laqgħa ta’ inawgurazzjoni ġie elett unanimament kumitat ta’ tmexxija.
